Introduction
Forbes Accounts is a powerful, yet simple to use final accounts production system for accountants.
It integrates closely with other Forbes products such as Time Recording, Payroll, Company Secretarial and Tax.
The system is based on a model/view architecture.
The underlying data (codelist, schedules of transacations) referred to as the "model" is kept separate from the final output, known as the "view".
The underlying data is entered through powerful and easy to use data schedules.
Alternatively there is full two way interaction with excel.
It is then formatted using one of a number of templates to produce the final accounts.
Key Features:
Final accounts for sole traders, partnerships and limited companies
XBRL enabled from the outset (see below for more detail)
